Are social statements made when caucasians clean, service or maintain statues to one more other caucasians ?

What is ironic about non-caucasians cleaning, servicing or maintaining statues to one or more other non-caucasians ?

cleaned by Black workers.

Yes, classic Park's, using his photography to make a social statement.
